Prakash, 8/2/2012)The police have wrapped up investigations into the case of derogatory posters of Penang Chief Minister Lim Guan Eng, Bersih 2.0 chief Datuk S.Ambiga and national laureate Datuk A. Samad Said found in Taman Tun Dr Ismail last weekend.Brickfields district police chief ACP Wan Abdul Wan Abdul Khalid said 10 people were released in connection with the derogatory posters last Saturday as they had completed investigations on the case.“This is a minor issue. We have recorded the suspects statements and completed our investigations. We even submitted the investigation papers to the deputy public prosecutor’s office for further action and the suspects are eligible for bail and thus released.”On a suggestion by Segambut MP Lim Lip Eng urging the release of footages of suspects to deter others from repeating the act, Wan Bari said there were no reasons to release footage or photo-fits of suspects as they had already been detained."Photo fits of suspects were usually released if we were unable to find the suspects," Wan Bari said.
